Also, now added to selling costs
Starting Sept 1st, 2022, Chevy is now making mandatory a three-year subscription to OnStar for everyone buying a Corvette
This cost will be added to whatever the sticker price is
The cost of the subscription is $300, includes the ability to remote start, receive vehicle diagnostics.
This is a limited version of the OnStar app and doesn’t include the ability to make calls or get turn-by-turn directions.
In August, GM started adding a three-year subscription to OnStar & Connected Services for $1,500 to all Buicks and GMCs.
While it’s called an option, there is no way to opt-out of it other than not using it.
GM has said it believes customers will pay for subscriptions services as they have no choice if wanting to buy a new Corvette, and they are rolling out an ambitious plan to increase its revenue from subscriptions significantly by the end of the decade.
GMs Steve Carlisle said the automaker is looking to offer customers more than 50 new fee-based digital features by 2026.
